This book is a translation of the New Testament into the Malê language of Papua New Guinea. The population of the Malê language group is over 3,000. Most Malê speakers live in the Lae District of Morobe province, approximately 20 miles south of Lae extending to the coast near Salamaua (see map).
Missionaries from Germany began work among the Malê people in the 1940’s. The Yabêm language from the coastal area around Finschhafen was used as a medium for both evangelism and education. In the 1960’s English became the language of education in the Malê area. Yabêm and Melanesian Pidgin continued to be used in the Malê churches until the time this translation work commenced.
At the invitation of the Malê people, the translation of this New Testament began in 1976 with the assistance of SIL. Thanks to the many Malê people whose efforts have gone into the production of this translation. Thanks also to the many people from around the world who have supported this work by means of financial support, prayers and encouragement.
Above all, thanks be to God for His written word given as a means for people to come to know and believe in His Son, the living Word. Thanks to Him for faithfully sustaining and enabling each and every member of the translation team. To Him be the glory.
